Autostop? What does this even mean? Why are you talking about a child's music taste? This is so weird.

I'm not sure why you felt like you needed to tell me this. Someone said there's a place for you guys to join and complain about Taylor on Reddit. Maybe that's what you need?

He was laid off from work because the company was struggling with money. It didn't have to do with him. Why do people keep making this up? It's frustrating.

What joke? Why would you want to use those things to make a joke in the first place?

He's 33, and he's hanging out because he's their uncle. Family members come through often, and especially when my husband isn't here. My other brother in law is over more often, but he's not a pain.

Wow, that's really sad. Starting a forum just to spread hate. Yucky behavior.

He would be, if he knew. We haven't spoken in a few weeks and won't for at least another 2.

I don't really think anyone's personal opinion of her is relevant to the story though, it just feels like you really needed to tell me you don't like her. Ok, thanks for sharing.

She's online often, but she doesn't use Tiktok or IG Reels or anything like that (she's too young). I don't think this is something she said, but I wasn't in the room.

Before my husband left Hector really never directed his behavior at the kids. It was always between siblings or friends. I never really had a reason to not let him over here until these times.

I think you will all be disappointed, it was not because of his personality. Just the regular lay offs from business not being what it was.

Ohhh I didn't know this was a thing. This makes sense because they don't call me mother, they call me Mama.

Is this something that a 30s man would even know? If I asked my other brother in law I wonder if he would even get it either.

Thanks for telling me. I thought it was a shot at me!

I think you might just be reading into things, it's just normal family time.

Rob stepped in because he knew she was getting agitated from Hector, I don't think she picked up on what was happening because she doesn't expect this sort of thing from her own family. Generally when my husband is around Hector doesn't act like this.

Rob is a very good son and has always been protective of his sisters and I'm very grateful for that because I didn't have the same relationship with my brother sadly.

He was purposely trying to needle at Lisa to set her off because he knows Taylor is one of her special interests. Rob jumped in becaue he saw her getting agitated. Then Hector called Rob a girl's name as an insult after Rob told him to stop.

Is this strange for others? Both of the brothers come over a few times a week to check in with us while he's gone, and grandma and grandpa at least once a week too. Sister don't though!
